is kathaa se pataa chalataa hai ki bhagavaan viṣṇau hameshaa apane bhakton kee rakṣaa karate hain. Unhonne bali ke bhakti se prasann hokar use aasheervaad diyaa. Lekin, jab bali ne asuron ko baḍhxaavaa diyaa, to bhagavaan viṣṇau ne use paataal lok men bhej diyaa.
Ek baar yudhiṣṭhir ne bhagavaan shree kriṣṇa se poochhaa, he bhagavan ! Aap kripaa karake mujhe bhaadrapad shukl ekaadashee ke baare men vistaar se bataa_ie, tab bhagavaan shree kriṣṇa ne kahaa yudhiṣṭhir main tumhe ekaadashee ekaadashee kee kathaa kee kathaa sunaane jaa rahaa hoon, aap dhyaan se sune, is bhaadrapad shukl ekadashee ko ka_ii naamon se bhee jaanaa jaataa hai, jinamen padmaa ekaadashee , parivartinee ekadashee , jayntee ekadashee (jayanti ekadashi), jhoolanee ekadashee (jhulni ekadashi), devajhoolanee ekadashee (devjhulni ekadashi) aur vaaman ekadashee (aman ekadashi) shaamil hain. Is din agar yagy bhee kiyaa jaataa hai to bhee vahee laabh praapt hogaa jo kee is vrat ko karane se praapt hogaa. Is vrat ko karane v sunane se paapiyon ko paapon se mukti paane kaa aur koii adhik prabhaavashaalee upaay naheen hai. Jo koii ekaadashee ke din par mere vaaman avataar kee poojaa karataa hai, vah yash aur samriddhi ko praapt karataa hai, usake saare duahkh svatah hee samaapt ho jaate hai. Atah mokṣ kee ichchhaa rakhane vaalon ko yah vrat shraddhaapoorvak karanaa chaahie. Bhagavaan shree kriṣṇa aage bataate hai kee tretaayug men, bali naam kaa ek asur thaa. Asur hone ke saath – saath vah atynt bhakt, daanee, satyavaadee tathaa braahmaṇaon kee sevaa karane vaalaa thaa. Vah sadaa yagy, tap aadi kiyaa karataa thaa kintu usakaa devaraaj indr se bair thaa, bali ke bhakti se prasann hokar, bhagavaan viṣṇau ne use aasheervaad diyaa aur kahaa kee he bali! Aap asuron ke raajaa banoge aur aapako koii bhee haraa naheen paa_egaa. Is aasheervaad ke baad, raajaa bali ne samast asuron ko ekatrit kiyaa aur fir unhonne devataa_on par aakramaṇa kar diyaa. Bheeṣaṇa yuddh men devataa haar ga_e aur bali ne indralok par kabjaa kar liyaa, jisase devataa bhayabheet ho ga_e aur devataa apane lok ko vaapas paane ke lie bhagavaan viṣṇau kee sharaṇa men jaakar indralok ko vaapas dilaane kee yaachanaa karane lage. Bhagavaan viṣṇau ne devataa_on kee madad karane kaa faisalaa kiyaa. Fir unhonne paanchavaa roop vaaman avataar ke roop men liyaa aur raajaa bali ke paas pahunche. Vaaman ne bali se kahaa ki he raajaa bali ! Aap mujhe teen pag jameen daan men de. Bali ne vaaman ko teen pag jameen dene kaa vachan diyaa. Is par unhen daity guru sukalaachaary ne bahut rokaa aur unhen bhagavaan viṣṇau dvaaraa lie ga_e paanchaven avataar ke baare men bhee bataayaa kintu raajaa bali atynt daanee pravitti hone ke kaaraṇa unhonne kahaa he gurudev! Mainne inhe vachan diyaa hai aur main apane die hue vachan se vimukh naheen ho sakataa aur rahee baat kee ye viṣṇau ke avataar hai to ye to mere lie bade saubhagy kee baat hai kee svayn bhagavaan viṣṇau mere paas yaachak banakar aaye hai. Itanaa kahakar unhonne bhagavaan vaaman se teen pag jameen lene kee aagyaa dee. Fir bhagavaan vaaman ne vishaal roop dhaaraṇa kiyaa aur apanaa pahalaa pag svarg par rakhaa. Apane doosare pag ke lie, unhonne prithvee ko maapaa aur use ek hee pag men ḍhak liyaa, isake baad vaaman ne apane teesare pag ke lie bali se kahaa ki vah use apanee teesaraa pag kahaa rakhoo , mujhe bataaye, is par raajaa bali ne prabhu aap apanaa teesaraa pag mere sir par rakhe, fir jaise bhagavaan vaaman ne apanaa teesaraa pag ke lie apane pag raajaa bali ke sir par rakhe bali ko paataal lok men le ga_e. Bali kee bhakti dekhakar bhagavaan vaaman atynt prasann hue aur unhen paataal lok kaa raajaa banaa diyaa. Bali ko paataal lok men bhejane ke baad, bhagavaan viṣṇau ne devataa_on ko unhen unakaa lok vaapas kar diyaa. Devataa_on ne bhagavaan viṣṇau kaa dhanyavaad kiyaa aur unhen prasann kiyaa. Is din bhagavan viṣṇau sote hue karavaṭ lete hai, jis kaaraṇa se is din bhagavaan viṣṇau kee poojaa karanee chaahie. Is kathaa se pataa chalataa hai ki bhagavaan viṣṇau hameshaa apane bhakton kee rakṣaa karate hain. Unhonne bali ke bhakti se prasann hokar use aasheervaad diyaa. Lekin, jab bali ne asuron ko baḍhxaavaa diyaa, to bhagavaan viṣṇau ne use paataal lok men bhej diyaa.
